The present work examines the deformation of magnesium tubes using drawing process. During examination, absence of wrinkling and cracking is witnessed at 303k. The effect of mandrel on the cross section of the extruded tubes, wall thickness and spring-back of the bent tube are vividly discussed. Results show that presence of mandrel decreases the cross section of distortion and the spring back angle. Further, the present investigation clarifies the thinning rate of tube wall thickness. It is found that at the bending angle of 90° largest distortion is witnessed.
